Turnberry Villas

Yet another Palmetto Dunes question. Thank you for all your previous responses (especially HHI Guy).

Which villas are an easier walk to the beach. Turnberry looks closer (as the crow flies) then Fazio but appears to be behind a golf course. If you were staying at Turnberry Villas would you have to loop back around on Carnoustie or is there some type of walking path that crosses over by the golf course?

We have two small children and would like to be able to walk or at least an easy bike ride to the beach.

Thank you.

I haven%26#39;t stayed in Turnberry, but I%26#39;ve stayed at Inverness several times. (You turn left into Turnberry and right into Inverness). In my opinion, it would be too far to walk especially with young children. Whether or not you ride a bike or drive would depend on how much stuff you wanted to take to the beach. For some reason my wife likes to take big stuff like an ice chest so we always drove and parked at the Disney pavillion parking lot.

If you Google ';palmetto dunes map'; you should come up with a link such as the one below. The one time that I drove through Turnberry I remember it being pretty deep. The map seems to confirm this:

I found the following info on a vacation rental site:

';Access the bike path at the entrance to Turnberry and be on the beach in less than ten minutes. Free beachfront parking is available.';

Looks like there is no shortcut.


As the other posters have mentioned it is a longer route to the beach from Turnberry and Inverness than from Fazio.
